Re: Is there a music program that allows working with midi files.

2013-03-04 Thread Chris Blouch
I played around with this a bit and was able to import some generic midi 
I found on a random web site just fine. Main problem I had was 
re-orchestrating the tracks so the drums were no being played with a 
piano etc. That's been the bane of MIDI for a long time.

Hi Chris.

I have tried with garageband, but it sounds as if the bars is being split up. I 
have tried listening to the midifile with qmidi and sweetmidi, and the files 
work, but I will give them another try with garageband.

If anything goes wrong, could I use sonar in VMWare in windows 7.

Best regards Annie.

Is there any accessible music program that allows playing and editing a little

You either could use Garage band, or depending on how much power you need, 
which based on what you're saying this would be way way over-kill, you could 
use ProTools.

Hi.

Ok can I use pro tools, this is new information to me, I have in fact a copy of 
pro tools, but as far as I know, it can not be used by totally blind people in 
mountain lion? I am not much interested in installing lion only because pro 
tools is not accessible in the version that can work in mountain lion. Is there 
any solution for that.

Best regards Annie.

GarageBand would allow for deleting a track, transposing keys, changing 
tempos and instrument assignments. It does not allow for any note editting, 
(note editting is possible, but not accessible with VoiceOver).
